Maine and a GOP lawmaker who ID’d a transgender athlete online agree lawsuit is now moot

  • Earlier this month, Maine and Rep. Laurel Libby's attorneys agreed her voting-rights appeal is moot, confirming restrictions are lifted.
  • The dispute originated from Libby’s viral February social media post identifying a transgender teen athlete, leading to her censure, voting ban, and a Supreme Court ruling in May that she must vote.
  • Court filings show Maine House lawmakers voted in June to halt Libby's restrictions, with no voting limits remaining and the appeal now considered moot.
  • Despite pending dismissal, Libby will not contest mootness or apologize, as both parties agree the case is now moot.
  • Earlier this month, Libby’s attorneys and Maine officials agreed her voting-rights appeal is moot after restrictions were lifted, ending the legal dispute.
